Viventium was instrumental in helping my company become ACA compliant this past year.

How The Affordable Care Act Applies to You in 2018

For the year 2018, employers with 50 or more full-time employees or equivalents must offer health coverage to full-time employees and file Forms 1094-C and 1095-C with the IRS. Filings are due to the IRS in the first quarter of 2019, and a copy of the 1095-C must be distributed to each employee by January 31, 2019.

Employers who fail to offer health coverage and file Forms 1094-C and 1095-C may be subject to IRS penalties.

Are You an ALE in 2018?

To determine ALE status during the current year, employers use a lookback period during the prior year. If an employer has on average 50 or more full-time employees, including full-time equivalents, during the 2017 lookback period, the employer is an ALE for 2018.
